Workers Compensation


Workers Compensation Information

a store in a cage

“Even though your workplace and environment feels safe you still need to be protected from any of the many different accidents or occurrences that could happen.”

The state of California requires all small businesses to have workers’ compensation insurance even if they have only one employee. The insurance provides no-fault coverage for employees against injuries that happen in the workplace.

We will explain to you how your worker’s compensation insurance policy will provide medical care for an injury or illness, temporary or permanent disability benefits, additional job displacement benefits or vocational rehabilitation, and death benefits.

Best Formula Insurance will help you meet the State of California requirements for your business. Even though your workplace and environment feels safe you still need to be protected from any of the many different accidents or occurrences that could happen. We are with you every step if something happens and you need to make a claim with your workers compensation insurance company. We have the experience to help everyone with their policy.

Workers compensation laws were created to ensure that employees who are injured on the job are provided with fixed monetary awards. This eliminates the need for litigation and creates an easier process for the employee. It also helps control the financial risks for employers since many states limit the amount an injured employee can recover from an employer.

Workers Compensation Insurance is designed to help companies pay these benefits. As a protection for employees, most states require that employers carry some form of Workers Compensation Insurance. Workers Compensation Insurance is not health insurance. Workers Compensation is designed specifically for injuries sustained on the job.

In most states, if you have employees, you are required to carry Workers Compensation coverage. Even in non-mandatory states, it can be a very good idea, particularly if you have many employees, or if they are engaged in hazardous activities.

Do I need workers compensation insurance?

Employers have a legal responsibility to their employees to make the workplace safe. However, accidents happen even when every reasonable safety measure has been taken.

To protect employers from lawsuits resulting from workplace accidents and to provide medical care and compensation for lost income to employees hurt in workplace accidents, in almost every state, businesses are required to buy workers compensation insurance. Workers compensation insurance covers workers injured on the job, whether they're hurt on the workplace premises or elsewhere, or in auto accidents while on business. It also covers work-related illnesses.

Workers compensation provides payments to injured workers, without regard to who was at fault in the accident, for time lost from work and for medical and rehabilitation services. It also provides death benefits to surviving spouses and dependents.

Each state has different laws governing the amount and duration of lost income benefits, the provision of medical and rehabilitation services and how the system is administered. For example, in most states there are regulations that cover whether the worker or employer can choose the doctor who treats the injuries and how disputes about benefits are resolved.

Workers compensation insurance must be bought as a separate policy. Although in-home business and business owners policies (BOPs) are sold as package policies, they don't include coverage for workers' injuries.
